OAT BISCUITS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a baking tray with baking parchment.
• Sift the flour into a bowl. Mix in the baking powder, porridge oats and sugar.
• Melt the butter, syrup and milk in a small saucepan or in the microwave and stir.
• Add to the dry ingredients. Mix until the liquid covers all the oat mixture and until well combined.
• Spoon onto a baking tray and shape into rounds, leaving space between each biscuit as they will spread whilst cooking.
• Bake for 10-15 mins, or until golden brown. Leave to cool for 5 mins before removing from tray.

OAT AND WHOLE-GRAIN BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Put the flour, oats, baking powder, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a food processor; pulse until the oats are finely ground. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Pour into a large bowl and form a well in the center. Gently stir in the buttermilk until the dough just comes together.
• Dust a work surface with flour. Turn the dough out onto the floured surface. Flatten the dough into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Fold the dough in thirds, like a letter. Flatten and repeat from the other direction. Roll or pat out to a generous 3/4-inch thickness. Cut out rounds using a 2- to 3-inch biscuit cutter, rerolling and cutting the scraps. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet, leaving 1 1/2 to 2 inches between the biscuits. Brush the tops with buttermilk.
• Bake the biscuits until risen and light golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

• Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Line 3-4 baking trays with baking paper or silicone baking mats, or line 2 trays and cook in batches.
• Measure the butter, golden syrup and sugar into a large saucepan. Heat gently until the sugar is dissolved and everything is well combined.
• Remove from the heat and add the flour, semolina, oats and ginger. Stir until well incorporated, then tip onto a baking tray, flatten out and leave to cool for 10 minutes.
• Scoop up teaspoonfuls of the mixture (which will be quite crumbly and buttery) and roll into 36 little balls. Place on the prepared baking trays, well-spaced apart and push down slightly to flatten. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until lightly golden-brown.
• Leave to cool on the baking trays, then store in an airtight container when completely cold.
